et cetera, et cetera 英文人行道: abnormal, utopia, dystopia, dystonia, quince, evocative of the cat and dog fight, poverty-stricken, crime-ridden dystopia

These days America’s press regularly—and the president occasionally—portrays Britain as a poverty-stricken, crime-ridden dystopia

The unique atmosphere of British politics has been lost. But even a parliament without blood and noise is better than none

In This Election, It's Running Cats and Dogs

Editors’ Note: Because of the Presidents’ Day holiday, In Advertising will arrive next week on Tuesday, Feb. 19.

A fund-raising drive is capitalizing on the intense interest in politics this year with a campaign that elaborately mimics an election, as a pair of candidates vies for voter approval with video clips on YouTube, signs, posters, bumper stickers, brochures, buttons and profiles on social-networking Web sites like Facebook, Catster and Dogster.

Catster? Dogster? Yes, in this campaign, the candidates are named Spike and Biscuit rather than Barack and Hillary or John and Mike. On the campaign's Web site as of early Sunday evening, Biscuit, a female cat, and Spike, a male boxer, were tied at 50 percent apiece in a result evocative of the race between Senators Obama and Clinton.

Op-Ed: Uncle Ray’s Dystopia

Ray Bradbury didn’t just extrapolate the evolution of gadgetry; he foresaw how it would stunt and deform our psyches.

LOS ANGELES — For those who find consolation in visionary architecture, this city has always been a powerful antidepressant. Its wealth of 20th-century treasures, mostly private homes, reminds us that it is possible to find quiet corners of enlightenment in dystopian times.

utopian (烏托邦) 的相反字為 dystopian,

歹托邦（dystopia）是烏托邦的反義詞，希臘語的字面意思是“不好的地方”。與理想中那種完美的境域完全相反，歹托邦乃指極端惡劣的社會形態。西方作家創作了很多有關歹托邦的虛構作品，多是描繪反人性的極權政府和高科技畸形發展所導致的生態災難。此類作品的故事背景多設定在未來，旨在警示世人關注現實世界中有關社會制度、環境保護、道德倫理和科學技術方面的問題。1868年，約翰·密爾（John S. Mill）在英國下議院發表演講時首次使用了“歹托邦”一詞，他指責政府的愛爾蘭土地政策說，“把它稱作烏托邦也許過於褒獎，我看稱其為歹托邦才恰如其分。我們常用烏托邦指稱某些太美好而難以實現的事情，但這個現行的政策實在不好，它根本是行不通的。”1
